In this episode, the fragility of life and how it links with a Muslim's belief in the divine decree is explored. The nature and measure of faith are discussed at a practical level. Examples are given of how faith can increase and decreased whilst remaining stationary. Judging another's belief is also discussed in the context of the prophet's life.
